The Mosaic

There is a mosaic

Beneath my feet

Pages of poems

Torn and taped together

❀

Beneath the soil

There is blood

And broken bones

A graveyard of moments

When depression had

Chained me to my bed

When betrayals had

Starved me of oxygen

When hopelessness had

Hanged me at the gallows

❀

But those moments are buried

And I have learnt to stop digging them up

❀

Now the pavement has flowers

Peeking through

The scent of new beginnings

Filling the May air

❀

And I can dare to say

That I am finally

Dancing across

A pathway of healing

❀❀❀❀❀
